Adding a Placeholder to a Story

Annova System's Open Media allows placeholders to be linked to a story by a drag-and-
drop operation. To link a clip to a story in a rundown using the IPMOSBrowser, proceed as
follows:

To add a placeholder into a story, proceed as follows:

1. Type the name (and VarID) of the clip in the corresponding fields of the Placeholder

pane. If only the Name field is available, IPMOSBrowser will take the name you enter
as VarID for the clip.

2. In the rundown, double-click the story to open it in a separate window.

3. Drag and drop the Placeholder button to the story grid.

The placeholder is represented by a position mark in the story text. The name of the
placeholder appears in the MOS_Abstract column.

4. Save the story.

The clip immediately appears in the rundown as an expandable sub-item of the story.
When the rundown is pusblished to IPDirector through IPMOSGateway, a virtual
element is created in the playlist for the story with the placeholder.

Note

You can add multiple placeholders to a story.
